Zhang Yi, Deng Chao, Duan Yihong, and Zhang Hanyu are the most restrained among them, and he can't get out of his strength, although his acting skills are very good, but he still hasn't chosen.

Deng Chao's temperament is too impulsive, giving people the feeling that a special operations team will bring out problems with him, so He Fang also gave up.

Zhang Hanyu is the toughest, but he gives people a too old-fashioned temperament, who still asked him to play the captain, the captain of the special operations team is not suitable for him.

Therefore, in the end, he chose Duan Yihong, Duan Yihong's temperament is a little evil, his performance is not too wooden like Zhang Yi, his performance is very spiritual. This is for a movie full of killing, and such a male protagonist needs to pull out some flavor, if Zhang Yi is allowed to come, the whole movie feels like the special operations team is full of tools and people who have no performance in it.

The other actors He Fang have all changed, such as the actor of the sniper Gu Gu, He Fang chose Zhang Yishan, and he is another actor full of spirituality. The actor in "Operation Red Sea" in another time and space is Huang Jingyu, a model who learns flight attendants and has a weak acting foundation. Therefore, his performance can only be said to be barely qualified, and there is really no characteristic.

But Zhang Yishan is the same, this actor can have momentum when he is serious, but he is not in shape when he is a ruffian, and his acting skills are profound.

Speaking of the female reporter's actors, He Fang didn't use Haiqing anymore, He Fang felt that Haiqing was too dry, maybe he played too much mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and his acting habits were like mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarreling...... So watching "Operation Red Sea" in another time and space, she really played too hard.

He Fang chose Chen Shu to play this female reporter, Chen Shu's reporter is more imposing, and Zhang Chidu He Fang feels that he has a more refined control than Haiqing, at least it will not make the audience feel that this is a 'noisy daughter-in-law', but a female white-collar worker with a temperament and inner show.

Du Jiang, who played the demoman Xu Hong, was replaced by Lei Jiayin. The acting skills of the big head Lei Jiayin He Fang think are better than Du Jiang, the performance is more delicate and real, and the emotional expression is more touching.

Tong Li, who played the machine gunner, was replaced by Wang Zhi, Wang Zhi Everyone only knows that she is the school flower who plays "Charlotte's Troubles", but in fact, she is a beating girl and an actress with very solid kung fu. Of course, the most important thing is that she is an actor with a professional background and solid acting skills.

And the other time and space to play Tong Li is Jiang Luxia, she is an Internet celebrity from a sports university...... He Fang does not look down on non-majors, but ...... There is really a gap between amateur challenges and professional professionals.

People have spent at least five or six years training their lines, performances, etc., how can you compare to an amateur who has not received long-term training?

There is also an actor, who has changed, that is the machine gunner, nicknamed Stone. In another time and space, "Operation Red Sea" uses another non-professional Wang Yutian, who is a fitness coach and has never acted in any scenes before.

So He Fang will definitely not use any Wang Yutian, he doesn't know him, and there is no such person to submit a resume audition. In the end, He Fang chose Jiang Jinfu as the actor for this role, although he knew that Jiang Jinfu would quit the entertainment industry for some reasons in the future, it did not mean that He Fang could not use him at this point in time.

I can't decide what will happen to Jiang Jinfu in the future, but Jiang Jinfu is at least at this stage and is an actor with a little muscle, a little appearance, and a little acting skills, and he can use it.

He really can't understand that this Lin Chaoxian used several non-professional actors such as Huang Jingyu, Jiang Luxia, and Wang Yutian in "Operation Red Sea", and he really can't find a professional actor for such a big investment in a movie? To use so many non-professionals?

In fact, in another time and space, "Operation Red Sea" has almost no other highlights of this movie, except for the more bloody military action. Because the plot is not very exciting and complicated, the performance is really average.

From here, it can be seen that Lin Chaoxian is really not good at choosing actors, and it is not good at training actors.

On March 12, all the actors were enrolled in the group, and then He Yi started the script reading work.

Preparations for filming on the side of "Operation Red Sea" are in full swing and preparations are ready to start on the 27th of the month, but the promotion of a new TV series has begun to spread around the world.

This TV series is the first season of "Breaking the Sky", which is scheduled to be released on March 31, and why is it being promoted all over the world? This is to test the joint propaganda ability of Tuan Huowen and Huying Group.

It's good to test the waters with this TV series, after all, TV series can premiere on the Internet, and only global audiences need to pay attention to relevant video websites.

And the trailer released by "Breaking the Sky" is also very shocking, the gorgeous and colorful world, the fierce and unscrupulous beasts, the cool fights, the imaginative spells, etc., this is a scene that Western fans have never seen, which is really amazing.

So the five trailers simply shocked a lot of young people, because young people love to watch these cool and beautiful things.

"Wow, what's this story? The people in it can fly and magic, is this a Chinese myth? It looks good to feel good. ”

"This is He Fang's TV series, looking at the introduction, it seems to be the most popular online adaptation in China, and I heard that this book is very popular."

"Didn't you see it? The English version of this book can be seen everywhere, a year ago. ”

"Huh? I don't know, I haven't read this book. ”

"Hurry up and take a look, you can only understand this drama after reading the book."

……

"It's been a thousand years, it's been a year, and the first season is finally out, it's really not easy."

"I've read the book a few times, I don't know how it went, I hope it doesn't disappoint."

"It feels good to watch this trailer, it's really a big production."

"This actor's costume is very good-looking, and I feel very astringent."

"It's different from the taste of Korean actors, and it feels more real and atmospheric."

……

As soon as the trailer came out, there was a lot of discussion on the Internet, and on the whole, the expectations were relatively high.

Under the leadership of He Fang, a number of domestic celebrities have forwarded the news that "Breaking the Sky" will be released. In addition, the advertisements invested by Tuanhuo Culture on major websites are also advertisements in turn on TV stations, and even the ground hard and wide are spread everywhere......

Whether it is South Korean or Vietnamese, they can see the advertisement of "Breaking the Sky" wherever there is a bus stop or where there is a subway station.

"The promotion of Tuanhuo culture this time is really great, I have seen the advertisement of "Breaking the Sky" in Thailand, which may have cost hundreds of millions of dollars in advertising around the world, right? How do you feel that everything is an advertisement? ”

"I'm afraid that hundreds of millions of dollars are not available, after all, the total investment in this TV series is only hundreds of millions of dollars, and they spent hundreds of millions of dollars in publicity and distribution fees in the first season? I'm afraid I can't make it, right? How much should be spent on the subsequent quarterly publicity and distribution fees? ”

"I think so, there shouldn't be hundreds of millions of dollars, but 350 million dollars is estimated to be there."

"I'm afraid that thirty or five million dollars can't have this effect, right?"

"Get out of the way, I'm a professional publicist, let me explain your doubts......"

There is a heated discussion on the Internet, which has actually reached the basic goal of Tuanhuo culture, because there are no stars in the TV series, they can only use overwhelming advertisements to deepen everyone's impression over and over again and set off popularity.

Otherwise, how can a TV series without a big star attract audiences?

On March 27, "Operation Red Sea" officially started filming in Morocco, but this time there was no launch press conference, because it was too far away, and the crew did not invite reporters to Morocco.

However, before the start of filming, the crew accepted a brief interview with several European media, after all, who is here, and the European media came to get some news, and by the way, they had a vacation.

These media outlets are BBC entertainment news reporters, "Cinema Handbook" reporters, France 4 entertainment reporters. The main subjects of their interviews were who they were and who they asked some sensitive questions.

For example, why is he keen to make films that show China's military might? Will it cause concern about China's military power?

Another example: Ask who will create the film to compete with the three major European film festivals and the Oscars?

Also: Where is the purpose of uniting Asian filmmakers? To confront the West?

Also: Ask if you have any film projects with the West in the future? Is it commercial or literary?

Of course, I also asked some sensitive and politically related questions......

These questions are all clichés, and the answers are the same as always.

After asking these questions, they basically ended their interview, and then He Fang invited them to a Moroccan meal: tagine pot, steamed sheep's head, snails, mint tea......

"Operation Red Sea" started filming so tepidly, in fact, fans have attention but are not very enthusiastic, what is there to be enthusiastic about the movie that has just started? They are going to see.

The start of "Operation Red Sea" was far less popular than the launch of "Breaking the Sky", and many fans stayed on the TV that night to watch "Breaking the Sky".

When the first episode was over, fans discussed it on the Internet, and they praised it for being in line with the original work, and the production and performance were in line with the audience's imagination, Yang Xuwen played Xiao Yan very well, at least the actor is no longer a white-faced child, but a young, angry, and somewhat bronzed strong and powerful person.

And the other actors don't have a weak existence, because this is a cultivation family, everyone cultivates, so they are all strong and sassy, with resolute eyes, and they all have a martial artist temperament.

This group of actors alone makes the audience feel as if they have entered the world of martial arts cultivation and vindictiveness, which is in stark contrast to the current domestic TV series in which all the men are 'showy' and the women are soft and weak.

In addition to the different temperaments of the actors, there are also martial arts movements that are full of power, not like a dance like in some domestic dramas, the key is that the dance is also very fake.

The key is that in addition to being full of strength, it is also very elegant, truly like an immortal movement, a real cultivator.

This is the benefit of training the actors for more than half a year, so that the actors all have a certain martial arts temperament, rather than acting for the sake of acting.

"The first episode made me find the feeling of upgrading Hong Kong martial arts films, which is very cool. Why is this happening? I feel that the performances in it are all just right, and the movements in it are not fake at all, as if they have the instinct of all of them in this world. This first episode was really filmed, and I love it. ”

"I feel like an upgraded "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", with many characters, the image and temperament fit the role, the performance is in place, and the priorities are clear...... It's rare, I didn't expect to see this kind of high-quality martial arts style TV series again after so many years. ”

"This action director team must be the Hong Kong team, right? I think it's a hundred times better than some domestic TV dramas, this is the martial arts style. ”

"Everyone, this is not a martial arts style, this is a fantasy fairy style."

"I don't spray this drama at present, it's worth chasing."

"Hurry up, the second episode will start soon."

"I'm in a hurry, why is it over?"

……

When the second episode was over, there was a rush on the Internet, and it felt like it had just been teased, and there was no follow-up immediately, which was really annoying.

"I'd rather pay a membership fee, can I release it all at once? Can't I pay yet? ”

"Yes, I'm willing to pay to watch it, and I can watch it all at once without having to watch ads."

"I strongly ask to release it once, and I am willing to pay to watch it, otherwise I won't be crazy with two episodes a day?"

"It's useless for everyone to be anxious, if "Breaking the Sky" is really broadcast in the way of an American drama, it will be one episode a week, what do you want to do with two episodes a day now?"

"Oh my God, I can't figure out how American audiences insist on watching a TV series with one episode a week."

"People don't go out at seven or eight o'clock in the evening in the United States, and not all places have a good Internet connection, many places are watching TV at night in addition to reading books, or just with ......their wives."

"Hey, this ...... You're talking nonsense, aren't you? It is said that the United States never sleeps, how can this be? ”

"If you haven't been to the United States, don't make up the mess, I've been to ......"

……

After the first broadcast on the evening of March 31, the ratings data of all parties came out, and the ratings of Mango Satellite TV soared to 2.1, which is a data that exploded at the first broadcast, and many TV dramas reached 2.1 at the peak of the year, and the premiere of "Breaking the Sky" reached this data, which is a real big hit.

In fact, everyone wants to see what the quality of the so-called TV series produced according to the quality of American dramas is, coupled with the overwhelming publicity, which is why this wave of movie-watching has been caused.

Of course, from the point of view of word-of-mouth, the first two episodes successfully attracted the audience, whether it was a brief comment from professionals in the industry or the comments of the majority of fans.

The network is also broadcast synchronously, so it can be seen by a global audience.

The audience in Southeast Asia is the most excited, as if they feel the feeling of the old Hong Kong film letting the whole of Asia chase the drama, which is really exciting.

And some Asian TV stations are also paying attention to this drama, and seeing that the quality and reputation are so good, they have decided to negotiate with Tuanhuo Culture about the introduction of this drama.

When He Fang heard the ratings data and word-of-mouth reaction, he called Zhang Mo to say hello and encouragement.
